The scoring outburst marked the second brace of Bjorgolfsson’s 22-game career, while the win marked the Wildcats’ third straight over the Cardinals in Lexington. The scoring began in the 27th minute, when a long ball from Aimé Mabika drew Louisville goalkeeper Jake Gelnovatch out to his own 18, where Bjorgolfsson came out ahead in a footrace by poking the ball between Gelnovatch’s legs and finishing off the play in front of an empty net. The goal was Bjorgolfsson’s first of the season, as well as Mabika’s first assist. Ken- tucky headed into halftime with a 1-0 lead. The Cardinals answered back exactly 10 minutes into the second half, however, tak- ing advantage of three consecutive corner kicks in the span of 56 seconds with a head- er by Bryce LeBel off a service by Louisville native Haji Abdikadir. Ultimately, the stalemate proved to be short lived. Bjorgolfsson, who led his team in game-winning goals during his 2019 Confer- ence USA All-Freshman campaign, went on to seal the victory in the 62nd minute. Junior forward Daniel Evans began the sequence by corralling his own rebound from a shot on target high off the hands of Gelnovatch, only to attempt another try that instead landed at the feet of Bjorgolfsson. The 6-foot-2 Norwegian finished the play on the ground with a rocket to the left corner from six yards out. Mabika padded the Cats’ lead with a successful penalty kick in the 84th minute, improving to 7-for-8 (.875) on his storied ca- reer by way of his second goal of the season. Along with fellow defenders Leon Jones, Robert Screen and Luis Grassow, as well as midfielder Bailey Rouse, Mabika did not miss a minute of Monday’s action. Redshirt-sophomore goalkeeper Ryan Troutman received the first starting nod of his collegiate career, recording two saves and improving his season record between the pipes to 2-0. Fellow Louisville natives and Kentucky midfielders Brandon McMa- nus and Case Cox combined for 24 minutes off the bench in Cox’s career debut. The Wildcats outshot the Cardinals 17-9 overall and 7-3 on goal. Monday marked Kentucky’s third straight bout with an opponent from the Atlantic Coast Conference after opening the season with a 1-0 loss at Notre Dame on Sept. 17 and following up with a 4-2 win over Duke at home on Sept. 21. Mabika, Evans, Rouse and Kalil ElMed- khar each put one in the back of the net against the Blue Devils, with two assists be- ing credited to Screen and one apiece go- ing to McManus, Marcel Meinzer and Colin Innes. Kentucky led the total shot tally 18-6 in the teams’ first all-time meeting, includ- ing 5-3 on target. Following its hot start, Kentucky made its fall 2020 debut in the United Soccer Coach- es rankings as the No. 4 team in the nation. This week marks the Wildcats’ highest na- tional ranking since appearing in the top five over each of the final seven weeks of 2018.

UK also instilled programs to help prepare players for changes in life and to better connect with every player while at the same time bringing former players back who can offer career advice.COMMUNITY INVOLVEMENT Many Kentucky players choose to take part in serving the community in a variety of projects, including mentoring, hospital visits, speaking engagements and food drives. In 2019, along with other UK engineering students and a team of Toyota Manufacturing engineers, senior offensive guard Luke Fortner worked for months to help design, test and manufacture a specially-built push cart vehicle through a project called “Lift Them Up.” The push cart vehicle provides a Kentucky Children’s Hospital patient the chance to both accompany the Wildcats on the Cat Walk and attend a game at Kroger Field.
